Check again kid. Two kills and no deaths in Jan., but hat was the month I was dweebing it out in the tempest and dora. In Dec. I have 106 kills with 19 deaths. Thats a 5.68 K/D I would say it does look good. Looks like Im a better ninja then you!

No offense, but when one thinks of the better FW190A-8 drivers in the game, your name is nowhere on that list.  I don't even fly it and I have a better understanding of the plane than you do.


ack-ack



I bet his only undr standing of the A8 is its a good HO plane. When I think of a 190 pilot I think of someone like wilbuz.

My opinion is that Urchin eats DG for lunch, no sweat, based on first hand evidence. Dogfighting isn't like figure skating, there's a clear cut bottom line to it, and the bottom line is that Urchin beats DG.

sketch i'm really not looking for an argument, but, urchin is a better stick. i know you're backing upa  squaddie but there is no shame in being second to urchin, seeing as he's one of the best duellers in the game.


DG is a great MA style pilot, smart and smooth pilot, perhaps better at the MA style of play than urch, and so will have a better K/D etc.

in a fair 1 on 1 with DG though, urchin will win pretty much 100% of the time. that's not my opinion, that's a fairly factual assessment of the two sticks.

there are several of the best sticks in the game in this thread stating the same.

The plane has speed and like said earlier in this thread by Treize69  
Okay, so he kept his plane fast and reset the fight, came back and shot you down.  That is like telling Karaya not to slow his Ki-61 down and make you overshoot him.


Running until you are out of icon range isn't re-setting a fight.  Extending 1-2K is re-setting.  What I'm saying is he ran away, then got all brave and came back for the kill once I was engaged with multiple cons.

Most on these bbs would be ridiculed for such cowerdice.  It is however, a good way to get a high K/D ratio.

I have a lot of respect for the AK's and count several as friends and most as worthy adversaries.  Unfortunately, AKDG falls into neither of those categories and I was (am) dissapointed in him given my high regard for the rest of the squad.

I hope that makes it a little clearer.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

It's not about you being sorry or wrong.. It's about what's true.  Do you expect anyone to argue something they know isn't true?

I wasn't arguing with who was better... I could really care less.  I was saying he is a good stick and I like what Biggles just posted:

I never said it mattered or that it was anything more than a game. I said you were wrong saying there was any doubt Urchin eats up DG.

I have noticed the pony was hurt pretty bad by the update. I know I shouldn't try but I'll get into turn fights (or at least get angle) with better turning planes and I can tell the difference now as opposed to what it was before the update. As for the 50s. It seems to be less effective now, especially against Spits (I have my guns set for 200 thus should saw wings in half)

And hopefully I'll be nearly as good as AKDG and Urachin someday; long road on the one though

i think SkarSR is one of the best 51 pilots. Ive flown with him a few times and Ive seen him do some amazing stuff with it.


just throwing it out their Ive got close to a 10K/D in a 51.I think it's a great plane, really the only problem with it besides the turn rate would be that the .50cals are weaker then the real thing.

I guess the pony isn't what it used to be from what has been said in this thread.

I think its still a great plane, it won't perform that great against good sticks in more turnable planes down low but its high speed performance and all round attributes still make it formidable.

With good throttle/flap work you can still be dangerous.
